There are lots of long answers in today's NYT Connections, which may have 
made the task easier because there are simply fewer ways in which those 
complex terms can be used. If you take something like DAVID-AND-GOLIATH or 
BUMPER-TO-BUMPER there's not a lot of ambiguity about what it might refer to, 
unlike several other recent games (I'm looking at you, NAIL/BOLT/SCREW etc 
yesterday). 

This was therefore the easiest Connections game I've played in the past week. 
I solved all four in double-quick time, with no pauses for thought and no 
mistakes. If only they were all so simple, eh? 

How did you do today? Send me an email and let me know. Yesterday's NYT 
Connections answers (Thursday, 20 June, game #375) YELLOW: BITS OF HARDWARE 
NAIL, NUT, SCREW, WASHER GREEN: FISHING GEAR FLY, HOOK, LINE, SINKER BLUE: 
HAIR SALON FIXTURES CHAIR, DRYER, MIRROR, SINK PURPLE: LIGHTNING ___ BOLT, 
BUG, ROD, STRIKE What is NYT Connections? 

NYT Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the 
New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four items that share 
something in common, and each group has a different difficulty level: green 
is easy, yellow a little harder, blue often quite tough and purple usually 
very difficult. 

On the plus side, you don't technically need to solve the final one, as 
you'll be able to answer that one by a process of elimination. What's more, 
you can make up to four mistakes, which gives you a little bit of breathing 
room. 

It's a little more involved than something like Wordle, however, and there 
are plenty of opportunities for the game to trip you up with tricks. For 
instance, watch out for homophones and other word games that could disguise 
the answers. 

It's playable for free via the NYT Games site on desktop or mobile.
